Weld Cameras

Automatic welding processes require remote monitoring cameras to safely and properly verify equipment setup, monitor weld quality and alert the operator to other welding issues before they result in production problems.

Weld Cameras

By delivering clear views of the brightest features of a welding torch tip while still being able to see the weld pool and surrounding darker background, Weld Cameras with High Dynamic Range imaging can improve weld quality, lower defect rates, increase worker efficiency and improve the health and safety of welding processes.

Combining sophisticated sensor technology with advanced electronics to provide high-contrast, High Dynamic Range images, the Xiris XVC-O is perfect for a wide range of applications, including MIG, MAG, TIG, Plasma, Laser and Stick welding, while the Xiris XVC-S is ideal for SAW.

XVC-1000 for Open Arc and Laser Welding

The Xiris XVC-1000 Weld Camera combines a spectacular 140+ dB High Dynamic Range capability with power over Ethernet, a full suite of welding-specific imaging software tools, and a host of unique features to provide unprecedented image quality of a variety of welding and laser processes.

The XVC-1000 features a camera module with adjustable focus, 2/3” mono HDR CMOS sensor, and weighs only 135 grams. The camera is 40mm in width, 43mm in height and 65mm in length and is easily integrated over Gigabit Ethernet. Xiris has also released the new Xiris WeldStudio Viewer or an optional WeldStudio SDK.

The XVC-1000 is ideal for OEMS because of its size, easy integration, high efficiency camera and is operational over a GigE interface.

XVC-O Weld Camera for Open Arc Welding

The XVC-O features a camera module with adjustable focus housed in a rugged IP54-rated enclosure able to withstand operating in harsh welding environments. The base package offers a complete, robust system with additional options such as air or liquid cooling, window dedusting and a variety of console and camera mounts.

The image is displayed on an IP54-rated HMI Console with rich software features that include image recording and playback.

These superior features make the XVC-O the logical OEM Camera system choice for remote monitoring in open arc welding applications!

Why Consider The XVC-O Weld Camera?

The Xiris XVC-O Weld Camera should be a critical component in your welding system, particularly where automation is being used to reduce costs and significantly increase production efficiencies. In situations where the welding process is precise, with tight fabrication tolerances and considerable value of the end product, the XVC-O camera system provides more information through better-quality images to assist you in making more-meaningful process and quality-control decisions.

The XVC-O allows the welding process to be viewed remotely (up to 40 m / 130 ft. away), providing real-time views of the torch, weld area and material during standard and high-power welding conditions.

XVC-O Weld Camera for Educators

The XVC-O Educational package offers a complete robust imaging solution right out of the box to get you started quickly, including a Camera Module, Mounting bracket, 20 m cable, HMI Console, and rich software features that include graphical overlays, image recording and playback.

It is an ideal addition to your classroom to provide high contrast, high dynamic range images with a clear view of the brightest features of a welding torch tip while still being able to see the weld pool and surrounding darker background!

Why Consider the Educator XVC-O Weld Camera?

The ability of the XVC-O to be installed remotely from the weld instructor or student allows the welding process to be viewed up to 40m away by other students, providing a better view of the weld arc, torch and surrounding material during standard and high power welding conditions.

These superior features make the XVC-O Camera system an attractive choice for instructors and program managers of Open Arc welding education by providing:

Operating Ambient Environment

10°- 35° C

Storage Environment

-20 to +60° C

XVC-S Weld Camera for Submerged Arc Welding

The XVC-S Weld Camera provides a real-time view of the weld during the sub arc welding process. Housed in a rugged enclosure designed to withstand the weld environment, the XVC-S can act as a set-up tool to position the welding torch prior to welding or provide a means to adjust the welding position or welding parameters while the sub arc weld process is underway.

Out of the box and affordable, the XVC-S is able to reduce some of the pressures welding fabricators face today, providing a weld monitoring tool for submerged arc welding that allows manufacturers to be more productive and better meet the quality demands of the market.

Why Consider The XVC-S Weld Camera?

If you are using automation of submerged arc welding to reduce costs and increase productivity, the Xiris XVC-S Weld Camera should be an essential component in your automated system. The Xiris XVC-S Weld Camera allows the sub arc welding process to be viewed remotely, providing real time views of the torch, weld area and material during standard and high-power welding conditions.

The XVC-S increases productivity by increasing the “arc on time,” with less stopping of the process to make adjustments. The XVC-S also improves health and safety measures by removing the welder from the direct weld area.
